Gabon is a one of the African countries that sit on the Equator, yet most of us barely know anything about this former colony of France. Today Gabon has one of the lowest population densities in the world, but that certainly doesn’t mean it’s not worth discovering.

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Gabon.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. In 2014, Gabon became the first Central African nation to protect its threatened if abundant marine life. Nearly a quarter of its territorial sea is off limits to commercial fishing. The network of marine parks complemented an existing terrestrial protected area anchored by 13 national parks created in 2002.
2. The Gabonese capital, Libreville, got its name after the French navy captured a slave ship, named Elizia, in 1846.The 52 freed slaves were released and by 1849 had resettled near the French mission station on the site of Libreville, which translates as "Free town".
3. Prior to France's appropriation of today's Gabon, Bantu migrants, Portuguese explorers, alongside Dutch and English traders arrived and settled in the area between the 14th and 16th centuries. The Dutch, English and French soon settled in pre-colonial state known as Kingdom of Orungu. As a centre of the slave trade in the 18th century, the Gabonese coast became a departing point for the transatlantic slave trade at the end of the century.
4. The first president of Gabon, elected in 1961, was Léon M'ba. After M'ba's accession to power, civilian liberties were restricted. However, when M'ba dissolved the National Assembly in January 1964 to institute one-party rule, an army coup sought to oust him from power and restore parliamentary democracy. French paratroopers flew in within 24 hours to restore M'ba to power.
5. One of the most urbanized nations in mainland Africa, 87% of Gabon's population reside in urban areas, according to the UN's 2014 World Urbanization Prospects. While this striking figure is more than double the regional average (40%), National Geographic reports that an impressive 44% of Gabon's 1.38m population live in the capital, Libreville.
6. Hip-hop has been popular in the Central African region since the 1980s. Even current PresidentAli Bongo released an album and is known to appear on stage to perform among local rappers while on the campaign trail.
7. Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

A sister contacted me on instagram (@Blackedification) asking for help spreading the word about what's going on in Gabon(Africa). She sent an audio message explaining what's going on and days later he instagram page was gone. Well today I read that their was an internet censorship and shutdown going on, many are saying it was to silence them and to stop them from spreading through social media what's going on. Gabon protesters are being arrested in large numbers and even being killed and hidden so that no one can put stories out on it. Even though this isn't happening in the hoods of America yet this is something I think we should really pay attention to because The HonorableMinister Louis Farrakhan said what we see from afar will soon be at our door.

Since its independence from France in 1960, Gabon has had three presidents. In the early 1990s, Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new democratic constitution that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and reformed many governmental institutions. Gabon was also a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for the 2010–2011 term.

Low population density, abundant petroleum, and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, with the 4th highest HDI and the third highest GDP per capita (PPP) (after Equatorial Guinea and Botswana) in the region. GDP grew by more than 6% per year from 2010 to 2012. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

Ali Bongo

William Oliver Wallace (8 December 1929 – 8 March 2009), known by his stage name Ali Bongo, was a Britishcomedymagician and president of The Magic Circle who performed an act in which he was known as the "Shriek of Araby".

Early life

Born as William Oliver Wallace in Bangalore, India, where his father (also called William) was serving as a Sergeant Major with the 1st Battalion of the Queen's Own Royal West Kent Regiment, he spent his early years on a British station in Trimulgherry, Secunderabad, going to Britain with his mother Lillian at the age of seven.

Early life

The son of Cheng Zhiping (Chinese:程志平Chéng Zhìpíng) from Wenzhou, and a Gabonese mother, Jean Ping was born in Omboué, Etimbwé Department, Ogooué-Maritime Province. Cheng immigrated to Gabon in the 1930s as a trader and married the daughter of a local tribal chief. The villagers initially called Jean Ping the "son of Ping." In demonstrating respect to his wife's Christian beliefs, Cheng took his son to get baptized when he was a month old and named him "Jean." Cheng also attained substantial wealth through his many successful business enterprises in his newly adopted country. He sold china, wood, and seafood, and he also ran a bakery. Because of his good relationship with the locals, Cheng was elected to the local assembly three times.

Gabon is a one of the African countries that sit on the Equator, yet most of us barely know anything about this former colony of France. Today Gabon has one of the lowest population densities in the world, but that certainly doesn’t mean it’s not worth discovering.

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Gabon.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. In 2014, Gabon became the first Central African nation to protect its threatened if abundant marine life. Nearly a quarter of its territorial sea is off limits to commercial fishing. The network of marine parks complemented an existing terrestrial protected area anchored by 13 national parks created in 2002.
2. The Gabonese capital, Libreville, got its name after the French navy captured a slave ship, named Elizia, in 1846.The 52 freed slaves were released and by 1849 had resettled near the French mission station on the site of Libreville, which translates as "Free town".
3. Prior to France's appropriation of today's Gabon, Bantu migrants, Portuguese explorers, alongside Dutch and English traders arrived and settled in the area between the 14th and 16th centuries. The Dutch, English and French soon settled in pre-colonial state known as Kingdom of Orungu. As a centre of the slave trade in the 18th century, the Gabonese coast became a departing point for the transatlantic slave trade at the end of the century.
4. The first president of Gabon, elected in 1961, was Léon M'ba. After M'ba's accession to power, civilian liberties were restricted. However, when M'ba dissolved the National Assembly in January 1964 to institute one-party rule, an army coup sought to oust him from power and restore parliamentary democracy. French paratroopers flew in within 24 hours to restore M'ba to power.
5. One of the most urbanized nations in mainland Africa, 87% of Gabon's population reside in urban areas, according to the UN's 2014 World Urbanization Prospects. While this striking figure is more than double the regional average (40%), National Geographic reports that an impressive 44% of Gabon's 1.38m population live in the capital, Libreville.
6. Hip-hop has been popular in the Central African region since the 1980s. Even current PresidentAli Bongo released an album and is known to appear on stage to perform among local rappers while on the campaign trail.
7. Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

A sister contacted me on instagram (@Blackedification) asking for help spreading the word about what's going on in Gabon(Africa). She sent an audio message explaining what's going on and days later he instagram page was gone. Well today I read that their was an internet censorship and shutdown going on, many are saying it was to silence them and to stop them from spreading through social media what's going on. Gabon protesters are being arrested in large numbers and even being killed and hidden so that no one can put stories out on it. Even though this isn't happening in the hoods of America yet this is something I think we should really pay attention to because The HonorableMinister Louis Farrakhan said what we see from afar will soon be at our door.

Gabon and Lobe National Park

I didn't think I'd make it into Gabon after my time in Yaounde at their terrible embassy, but after getting a visa with ease at the border (as seen in the last episode) I'm here. The truth is, this country has such brilliant potential. The scenery is unbelievable, there is money here in the oil and timber industry, and there is wildlife as well.
However, despite a couple fun days in Gabon with a Dutch couple I met on the road, I quickly grew to despise Gabon. The people here were the least friendly I met in all of Africa, they seemed to resent me being in their country. Moreover, well at the pride and joy of Gabon tourism, Lope National Park, we learned how unprofessional they can still be when it comes to business.
Gabon, thus far has been so insanely frustrating but mostly due to t...

Addicts travel to Gabon for traditional medicine cure

Around 20 foreigners a year travel to Gabon to undertake the ancient ritual of Bwiti - one that can lead to psychedelic hallucinations and, according to some, cure drug addictions. Duration: 02:27

Driving through the Republic of Congo

After finally receiving my scooter in Franceville, Gabon I made the trip towards the Congo. But again, it wasn't without any lack of drama. I had two flat tires before I even made it to the border. I was planning on hitting the sand road of the Congo by about 8am, but with the flats, and the fact I was in the middle of nowhere, I didn't hit the sand until about 1030.
The sand road in the Congo was absolutely grueling. There were so many times driving the road towards Oyo that I just about quit and set up at the side of the road to sleep for the night. Following the sand day I crashed at the house of a Lebanese expat for the night and pushed on to Brazzaville.
Two days later, and I arrive at the outskirts of Brazzaville, Congo. But my visa expires today, so what will I do? Stay tuned....

The Lost Coast of Gabon - Sea Kayaking West Africa

Accompanied by photographer Peter McBride and two Gabonese eco-guides, we made an exhausting and exhilarating circumnavigation of Gabon's jewel of a national park, Loango. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and stretching 40 miles into the jungled interior, we kayaked and portaged more than 200 miles around the park's perimeter, seeing this wild country from a new and different perspective. Along the way we encountered river-swimming elephants, manatees, tarpon, surfing hippos, gorillas and more. By trip's end it was hard to decide which were the most beautiful, and the most difficult, parts of the expedition, but it was eye opening, for us all.

Stuck in Franceville, Gabon

After an absolutely terrible time in Lope, Gabon I had to leave Anne Murray behind and head towards the town of Franceville. I'm told that my trusted scooter should also be boarding a train in about a day and meet me in Franceville a couple days later, but honestly, I have no idea how long it will take.
I catch the train from Lope to Franceville, Gabon and then spend a couple days wandering town and doing things like shopping and swimming in the pool up at the fancy Hotel Leconi.
All in all, a bit of a boring time in Franceville, but it's about to get insane as I head into Congo the next episode. Stay tuned.

GabonTravel - Gabon is a country in WesternCentral Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africas wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.

GabonTravel - Gabon is a country in WesternCentral Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africas wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.

I didn't think I'd make it into Gabon after my time in Yaounde at their terrible embassy, but after getting a visa with ease at the border (as seen in the last episode) I'm here. The truth is, this country has such brilliant potential. The scenery is unbelievable, there is money here in the oil and timber industry, and there is wildlife as well.
However, despite a couple fun days in Gabon with a Dutch couple I met on the road, I quickly grew to despise Gabon. The people here were the least friendly I met in all of Africa, they seemed to resent me being in their country. Moreover, well at the pride and joy of Gabon tourism, Lope National Park, we learned how unprofessional they can still be when it comes to business.
Gabon, thus far has been so insanely frustrating but mostly due to the fact that it has so much potential, but the people don't seem to care even the slightest about the tourists that come here hoping to explore.
There are many places I'd rather see develop a tourism in West and Central Africa. And it annoys me to no end that the one country in the region that has the money, stability, and the natural blessings is completely neglecting it.
Anyways, rant over. After this episode I roll on towards the town of Franceville as I have to catch the train since there is no fuel left in the town of Lope. Stay tuned.

After finally receiving my scooter in Franceville, Gabon I made the trip towards the Congo. But again, it wasn't without any lack of drama. I had two flat tires before I even made it to the border. I was planning on hitting the sand road of the Congo by about 8am, but with the flats, and the fact I was in the middle of nowhere, I didn't hit the sand until about 1030.
The sand road in the Congo was absolutely grueling. There were so many times driving the road towards Oyo that I just about quit and set up at the side of the road to sleep for the night. Following the sand day I crashed at the house of a Lebanese expat for the night and pushed on to Brazzaville.
Two days later, and I arrive at the outskirts of Brazzaville, Congo. But my visa expires today, so what will I do? Stay tuned.

Accompanied by photographer Peter McBride and two Gabonese eco-guides, we made an exhausting and exhilarating circumnavigation of Gabon's jewel of a national park, Loango. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and stretching 40 miles into the jungled interior, we kayaked and portaged more than 200 miles around the park's perimeter, seeing this wild country from a new and different perspective. Along the way we encountered river-swimming elephants, manatees, tarpon, surfing hippos, gorillas and more. By trip's end it was hard to decide which were the most beautiful, and the most difficult, parts of the expedition, but it was eye opening, for us all.

After an absolutely terrible time in Lope, Gabon I had to leave Anne Murray behind and head towards the town of Franceville. I'm told that my trusted scooter should also be boarding a train in about a day and meet me in Franceville a couple days later, but honestly, I have no idea how long it will take.
I catch the train from Lope to Franceville, Gabon and then spend a couple days wandering town and doing things like shopping and swimming in the pool up at the fancy Hotel Leconi.
All in all, a bit of a boring time in Franceville, but it's about to get insane as I head into Congo the next episode. Stay tuned.

7 Facts about Gabon

Gabon is a one of the African countries that sit on the Equator, yet most of us barely know anything about this former colony of France. Today Gabon has one of the lowest population densities in the world, but that certainly doesn’t mean it’s not worth discovering.

------------------------------------------------
In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Gabon.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. In 2014, Gabon became the first Central African nation to protect its threatened if abundant marine life. Nearly a quarter of its territorial sea is off limits to commercial fishing. The network of marine parks complemented an existing terrestrial protected area anchored by 13 national parks created in 2002.
2. The Gabonese capital, Libreville, got its name after the French navy captured a slave ship, named Elizia, in 1846.The 52 freed slaves were released and by 1849 had resettled near the French mission station on the site of Libreville, which translates as "Free town".
3. Prior to France's appropriation of today's Gabon, Bantu migrants, Portuguese explorers, alongside Dutch and English traders arrived and settled in the area between the 14th and 16th centuries. The Dutch, English and French soon settled in pre-colonial state known as Kingdom of Orungu. As a centre of the slave trade in the 18th century, the Gabonese coast became a departing point for the transatlantic slave trade at the end of the century.
4. The first president of Gabon, elected in 1961, was Léon M'ba. After M'ba's accession to power, civilian liberties were restricted. However, when M'ba dissolved the National Assembly in January 1964 to institute one-party rule, an army coup sought to oust him from power and restore parliamentary democracy. French paratroopers flew in within 24 hours to restore M'ba to power.
5. One of the most urbanized nations in mainland Africa, 87% of Gabon's population reside in urban areas, according to the UN's 2014 World Urbanization Prospects. While this striking figure is more than double the regional average (40%), National Geographic reports that an impressive 44% of Gabon's 1.38m population live in the capital, Libreville.
6. Hip-hop has been popular in the Central African region since the 1980s. Even current PresidentAli Bongo released an album and is known to appear on stage to perform among local rappers while on the campaign trail.
7. Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

Gabon(Africa) Citizens are TIRED OF OPPRESSION, Internet SHUTDOWN, Cry for HELP

A sister contacted me on instagram (@Blackedification) asking for help spreading the word about what's going on in Gabon(Africa). She sent an audio message explaining what's going on and days later he instagram page was gone. Well today I read that their was an internet censorship and shutdown going on, many are saying it was to silence them and to stop them from spreading through social media what's going on. Gabon protesters are being arrested in large numbers and even being killed and hidden so that no one can put stories out on it. Even though this isn't happening in the hoods of America yet this is something I think we should really pay attention to because The HonorableMinister Louis Farrakhan said what we see from afar will soon be at our door.

Gabon Travel Video

GabonTravel - Gabon is a country in WesternCentral Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africas wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.
In the15th century, the first Europeans arrived. The nations present name originates from Gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River close to the capital of Libreville. French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza led his first mission to the Gabon-Congo area in 1875. He founded the town of Franceville, and was later colonial governor. Several Bantu groups lived in the area that is now Gabon when France officially occupied it in 1885.
In 1910, Gabon became one of the four territories of French Equatorial Africa, a federation that survived until 1959. These territories became independent on 17 August 1960.
Since independence, Gabon has been one of the more stable African countries. Autocratic PresidentOmar Bongo was in power from 1967 until his death in 2009. Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new constitution in the early 1990s that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and for reforms of governmental institutions. A small population, abundant natural resources, and considerable foreign support have helped make Gabon one of the more prosperous sub-Saharan African countries. Despite being made up of more than 40 ethnic groups, Gabon has escaped the strife afflicting other West African states.
Enjoy Your Gabon Travel!

Gabon and Lobe National Park

I didn't think I'd make it into Gabon after my time in Yaounde at their terrible embassy, but after getting a visa with ease at the border (as seen in the last episode) I'm here. The truth is, this country has such brilliant potential. The scenery is unbelievable, there is money here in the oil and timber industry, and there is wildlife as well.
However, despite a couple fun days in Gabon with a Dutch couple I met on the road, I quickly grew to despise Gabon. The people here were the least friendly I met in all of Africa, they seemed to resent me being in their country. Moreover, well at the pride and joy of Gabon tourism, Lope National Park, we learned how unprofessional they can still be when it comes to business.
Gabon, thus far has been so insanely frustrating but mostly due to the fact that it has so much potential, but the people don't seem to care even the slightest about the tourists that come here hoping to explore.
There are many places I'd rather see develop a tourism in West and Central Africa. And it annoys me to no end that the one country in the region that has the money, stability, and the natural blessings is completely neglecting it.
Anyways, rant over. After this episode I roll on towards the town of Franceville as I have to catch the train since there is no fuel left in the town of Lope. Stay tuned.

Driving through the Republic of Congo

After finally receiving my scooter in Franceville, Gabon I made the trip towards the Congo. But again, it wasn't without any lack of drama. I had two flat tires before I even made it to the border. I was planning on hitting the sand road of the Congo by about 8am, but with the flats, and the fact I was in the middle of nowhere, I didn't hit the sand until about 1030.
The sand road in the Congo was absolutely grueling. There were so many times driving the road towards Oyo that I just about quit and set up at the side of the road to sleep for the night. Following the sand day I crashed at the house of a Lebanese expat for the night and pushed on to Brazzaville.
Two days later, and I arrive at the outskirts of Brazzaville, Congo. But my visa expires today, so what will I do? Stay tuned.
